BRT Home Inspections & Radon Testing

Efficient, thorough, very detailed, easy

David was amazing. Answered all of our questions and was super helpful.

Being a Realtor, I have fired from my team more Home Inspection companies than any other RE profession. Found Dave and his team 4 years ago and he has been my go to since then. His attention to detail and ability to explain to homebuyer's what they are buying, is unmatched. This company is definitely the best when coming to home inspections and radon testing.

Dave and his team are fantastic. I recommend them to everyone. Always professional and very detail oriented. They explain everything as well.

It was not a good experience . Not only was many things missed but there is also a very noticeable crack in the foundation that was not addressed in the report. If I had the shower going and flushed the toilet the basement would flood. I don't know how that was missed. If I had the sink going and flushed the toilet the basement will flood. The basement was said to be dry and in no way was/ is this a dry basement. I had another company come in and within 10 minutes in the basement he could tell that there was bad patchwork in the corners and this basement was never dry and recommended drain tile. All these added up were no minor misses. I even had to put in two sump pumps just to deal with rain water coming in from cracks. I bought the house and in 3 months spend over 6 thousand in repairs from "minor" misses that could have been avoided. If I would have known that if I shower and flush I would swim in the basement I would have in no way bought this house. This flooding started within 4 days of me being there. I payed this company to inspect from the roof to the foundation to let me know if this was a good house and they did not follow through. It didn't have to perfect but these misses are adding up very fast when the cost would have fallen on the previous owner to fix . There is no way they could have done a good job when the basement windows is missing a window completely and just had a screen keeping the outside out. This being my first house I have learned also on what not to do and what to look for. The worst part about all of this was that they were recommend by a real-estate friend of mine. They did good in the rest of the house but this basement I feel was completely missed. The picture are within one month of me living there after starting to clean.

It went great, David made every clear to us in the home inspection and enjoyed doing. You can tell he enjoys what he does and has a good amount of experience. You can quickly tell you're in good hands. Would 100% recommend.

Great! Dave is very knowledgeable and professional.

Amazing. Dave was professional and patient. He explained everything to my wife during the inspection and took the time to explain even things that you don't usually expect during an inspection. The prices are fair and definitely worth it. Will recommend his services in the future.

My wife and I were really happy that we went with BRT for both our home inspection and the radon test. Dave handled our inspection, and was incredibly thorough. He got there early, and covered the whole whole house (including physically going up on the roof). He took tons of pictures for the report and explained what his concerns were as we went through. He also noted things that he couldn't call out in the report, but suggested we may want to address on our own. We were nervous going in with the house as there were visible cracks in the basement, but ended up purchasing after considering Dave's expert advice on the severity of the issues on his assumptions on repair costs. Additionally, the contractors we called ended up quoting their repair prices right around the same amount Dave suggested it would cost. Dave was super nice and extremely professional the whole time, he even went back a week after our initial inspection to recheck some electrical issues he called out that the sellers had fixed on their own. It was also convenient having the radon test done by the same company. And the test helped us identify high levels of radon in the house. We ended up purchasing a mitigation system, which has greatly reduce the radon level in the house. Adding the radon test increased the overall fee by $200 ($200 for Radon, $400 for inspection). For those on the fence about getting a radon test, I'd recommend it, as it's worth the price. All in all, were extremely satisfied with the value we got for the money, and will be recommending BRT to any friends and family that are purchasing a house in the future. It will also be the first place we call next time we move.

Working with BRT on our home inspection and radon test was incredibly easy and very competitively priced. Dave was very easy to get a hold of and was able to schedule us quickly. He is very knowledgeable about homes and construction in general. He not only showed me certain issues with the house but also explained which items I could fix myself and where to buy the parts. He differentiated the items that couldn't be "DIY-ed" and offered to provide (didn't push) contacts for these items. The best value with BRT is the fact that they can couple a radon test with their home inspection. Most home inspectors sub-contract their radon tests with different companies. This not only adds time to your inspection (cutting into your inspection review period) but also costs a lot more money (I quoted 5 different home inspectors and BRT was the most competitive). To top it all off, Dave is a personable guy who is very easy to get along with and has plenty of experiences to share. I would highly recommend Dave and BRT to anyone getting a home inspection (especially if you're getting a radon test too).

Dave was very thorough and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. He spent extra time explaining everything he saw during the inspection and willing answered any and all questions along the way. I wouldn't hesitate to hire BRT again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable professional.

David was very professional and detailed.

David was very professional, came in time. Was easy to communicate. Work is fantastic! Would definitely hire BRT Home Inspections & Radon Testing again and again as well as recommend this company to the others. It was a big please to work with you, Dave!

This is the second time I have hired this company for a job and I have not been disappointed. I received detailed, accurate and prompt information that helped me repair my own home and make decisions about a potential purchase. This is my go-to place for inspection and testing.

It went perfect. Dave was professional, thorough and friendly. He took his time to answer our many questions and educated us on numerous topics pertaining to our future home. Couldn’t have asked for a better home inspector.

We worked with Dave on two home inspections, actually. He inspected a home we almost ended up purchasing, but there were too many structural issues in the basement that came up. That house had a lot going on being an older home, and Dave stayed for about three hours with us to inspect it. He was incredibly thorough and knowledgable and was always more than happy to answer the many, many questions we had as first-time home owners. When we found the next home, which we ended up purchasing, we called Dave again, and he was kind enough to give us a discount being that the second inspection happened so soon after the first. Working with Dave was very pleasant. He is professional, friendly and flexible with his hours. We're very happy with the work Dave did on our inspection and for the tips and advice he provided. It's good to have the report he generated on hand so we can look back and make sure we take care of all of the little things he noted, as well! We would recommend Dave to anyone who needs an inspection!!

Fine. Davis was on time, friendly and knowledgeable

David was thorough, professional, on-time. Our newly installed radon mitigation system was checked for any defects and the radon levels were tested. Explanations were given for how equipment was set up. Davis is a very knowledgeable person with an impressive background and credentials.

Went very well. Very professional. Would recommend this company!

David was fantastic as a home inspector. He is thorough, knowledgeable, and highly professional. There is no cutting corners with David. We’ve had encounters with other home inspectors, and David is top-tier. David explains every detail of his detailed inspection and is always available for follow-up questions. He is also a trustworthy referral source. We needed a radon mitigation system installed, and he suggested a company that did a wonderful job. We couldn’t be happier with David Dinsick and BRT. We’ve hired him twice (for a sale and a purchase) after finding him through family members who were very impressed with his skills and performance. We highly recommend David/BRT for home inspection and radon testing.

Dave was very thorough in his home inspection and took many pictures. His report was more than 70 pages and had many issues that I would have probably missed. He also explained anything I asked about during his inspection which took about 3 hours to complete. He went into the attic and on the roof, and gave me pointers on items that I could easily improve or fix. He also had a ballpark on some of the other items that might cost a bit more to replace. He checked each major component and took photographs of the data tags so I can provide model and serial numbers to the service companies who will eventually have to service equipment in the house. He made me confident in the choice I was making for this house. If I need another home inspection, I'd definitely call Dave. He also checked the radon levels, which is a real problem in our area, and one that can be easily prevented!

Dave was very thorough in his inspection and explained anything I was wondering about along the way. He also gave pointers on how easy certain issues were for me to fix as a homeowner. He made me feel much better about the investment I was making with the house I was looking at. He noticed issues that I probably would have missed, but also was honest about the gravity of those issues. He also took a lot of photographs which was helpful. If I was looking for an inspection, I'd definitely hire Dave again.

Dave is always quick to answer and is flexible with scheduling. I am always happy with his services.

Great communication right off the bat. On the day of the inspection, Dave was there early and went above and beyond. Great timely report after. Also immediately followed up on questions I had after. Would hire again in a second

Dave was our 6th home inspector. He is the 1st inspector we are setisfied. He was not like other inspectors with fast work and give a report (those report are hard to understand) He checked in detail and his report is so oganized. It is easy to understand with pictures and explanations. I highly recommend him.
